I generally like the Feedback Sports repair stands better than Park. One thing that worries me about the PCS-10 is the clamp. I'll admit I've never used one, but the clamp looks like it might be a bit fussy (especially if you were trying to clamp the bike by the seat tube rather than the top tube. Have to admit, I'm also a little suspicious of the 2-leg design of the PCS-10. The ultra-wide tripod base on the Feedback Sports stands makes them very stable. That's nice when you're trying to remove a stuck crank or bottom bracket on a heavy MTB or touring bike.
